Expert Answers about Hitch Anti-Rattle


  • Does Kuat Hi-Lo Hitch Extender # HL20B Come with Anti-Rattle Device
  • The Kuat Hi-Lo Hitch Extender # HL20B actually comes with an anti-rattle hitch pin for the portion that fits into the vehicle hitch. For an anti-rattle device that fits into the upper hitch opening that would be dependent on what you were installing in it as there isn't an anti-rattle pin that fits all accessories.

  • Can I Use an Anti-Rattle Device with the Hitch Cap Sensor # C56UR?
  • As far as using an anti-rattle device with the 2" Hitch Cap Sensor for GMC Sierra MultiPro and Chevy Silverado Multi-Flex Tailgate # C56UR, it depends on what style of anti-rattle device you have. For example, if you have an anti-rattle hitch pin like the # 63232, these will not interfere with the # C56UR. However, while not specifically tested, if you have a harness-style anti-rattle device like the Pro Series Anti-Rattle Device for 2" x 2" Trailer Hitch Receivers # PS63091, these will...

  • Anti-Rattle For Curt Multi-Ball Adjustable Ball Mount
  • There aren't anti-rattle hitch pins for the Curt Multi-Ball Adjustable Ball Mount for 2" Trailer Hitches # D900 because anti-rattle pins are for hollow shank style mounts. There is an anti-rattle bolt on the # D900 mount, but if there is a lot of rattle in the hitch, there is an option to minimize it greatly with a clamp-style option: - Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061 The # RM-061 will tighten the ball mount in the hitch and reduce any movement, which is going to...

  • Can The etrailer Hitch Pin Alignment Collar Be Used With Anti-Rattle Locking Devices
  • No, The etrailer Hitch Pin Alignment Collar # e98942 will does not work as an anti-rattle device. The Let's Go Aero # 63232 will work with The etrailer Hitch Pin Alignment Collar # e98942 (only for alligning the carrier) as long as your hitch mounted cargo tray has a hollow shank. The Aero anti rattle device pulls the shank against the inside wall of the hitch receiver using a spring block and tightened down bolt. This will not interfere at all with the etrailer collar.

  • Anti-Rattle Options for Curt # C18153 Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier
  • The Curt # C18153 doesn't have a threaded insert for an anti-rattle hitch bolt, but that does not mean that there aren't anti-rattle options available. For a locking hitch pin with an integrated anti-rattle feature, I'd recommend the # 63232. Another option would be a locking hitch pin like part # e98882 and a separate anti-rattle device like # RM-061. Both options are pretty effective, but I'd lean toward the # 63232 because it's going to be easier to install and remove. I've linked...

  • Can The Thule Snug Tite Hitch Lock and Anti-Rattle Device, # THSTL2, Fit Other Brands Of Bike Racks
  • The Thule Snug Tite Hitch Lock and Anti-Rattle Device, # THSTL2, can only be used on Thule brand bike racks. Most bike rack manufacturers will only design the hitch locks to only fit their products. The threads are unique to the manufacturers bike racks. I also have a Softride Anti-Rattle Device and Lock, # SR25219, which is a universal lock and a anti-rattle device, for 2 inch hitches or the Trailer Hitch Anti-Rattle Kit for 1-1/4" Trailer Hitches, # F-315.

  • Is An Anti-Rattle Hitch Pin Included With A Trailer Hitch
  • It seems that the person you spoke with is confused. A stabilization strap and an anti-rattle bolt do not serve the same purpose. A stabilization strap helps support the non-trailer load on the hitch, while an anti-rattle bolt helps to eliminate the rattle or wobble of the shank in the trailer hitch. Per Curt's warranty, the # 18050 stabilization straps need to be used with all non-trailer loads. I spoke with my contact in Curt's technical department who confirmed that the stabilization...

  • Recommended Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock To Minimize Movement And Noise.
  • To reduce rattle and noise in your hitch cover, I recommend using an anti-rattle hitch pin like the Let's Go Aero Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches - 2-5/8" Span, # 63232. The foam silencers will wear down and still leave you with vibration noise. The anti-rattle hitch pin will secure the side of the cover to your hitch and eliminate the movement. I recommend using the Foam Gasket for AMG Hitch Covers # AMG-FM and the anti rattle pin with lock # 63232 to eliminate...

  • Is The Curt Anti-Rattle Kit Rated To Towing
  • I contacted Curt on your behalf regarding the Curt Anti-Rattle Kit for 2" Trailer Hitches # C22321. You can definitely tow with this anti-rattle pin kit. Hitch pins overall are not weight rated and the majority of the tongue weight and towing weight is not directly on the hitch pin. There will be no capacity concern using this threaded hitch pin with anti-rattle on a 2 inch hitch receiver with the exception of any solid shank accessory.

  • Anti-Rattle Locking Pin VS. U-Bolt Style Anti-Rattle
  • It sounds like you would like to know the difference between an anti-rattle locking pin like part # 63232 and an U-bolt style anti-rattle like part # RM-061 and to be honest they both work well. However, the anti-rattle locking pin does require an accessory with a hollow shank or a ball mount with a hollow shank for the components of the pin to fit inside properly. An anti-rattle locking pin does help take away the rattling you may hear with an accessory or ball mount inside the hitch by...

  • Locking Hitch Pin and Anti-Rattle Device for a Solid Shank 2 Inch Hitch Accessory on 2016 Outlander
  • There isn't an anti-rattle locking hitch pin that works with a solid ball mount or other hitch accessory. You can use a regular hitch lock and then an anti-rattle device separately. For a lock for a 2 inch Class III trailer hitch you can use # e98880. For an anti-rattle device you can use # RM-061 which reduces movement vertically. Or you could use # BX88224 which reduces movement vertically and horizontally. I have linked videos of both devices for you.

  • Hitch Lock & Anti-Rattle For Roadmaster Dual Hitch Adapter RM-077-4
  • There is a hitch lock as well as an anti-rattle device available for your Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-4 but because it has a solid shank, there isn't an anti-rattle hitch lock, as solid shanks prevent the use of an anti-rattle lock. So you will need to get the lock and anti-rattle separately, and this will serve the same function of locking the adapter and preventing rattle; what you will need is the following: - etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98880 - Roadmaster...

  • Is there Something Similar to the Anti-Rattle Lock # 63232 for Solid Shanks?
  • I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, there are no anti-rattle hitch pins like the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # 63232 for solid shanks.

These two accessories will give you the stability and security you want on your solid shank.
